I have no idea who Keep Shelly In Athens is (no, that is not a picture of them), but these three leaks are absolutely phenomenal. With hints of leisurely lounge music, electronic and even hip-hop-influenced sampling techniques, there is no real way to categorize these tunes. “Fokionos Negri Street” reminds me of one of those throwback Pete Rock interludes, real laidback with a simply unmistakable vibe. That song also happens to be my favorite of the bunch, but the others are spot-on as well. I also don’t know if these tracks will land on a project in the future, or if we will even hear from Keep Shell In Athens again. Check it out and share some thoughts. [via]
